Gravel in Gray, TN

Prices in Gray typically vary by material and delivery distance. Expect roughly $15 to $45 per ton for common gravels delivered, with specialty stone toward the higher end; Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and usually delivers on tri-axle trucks (about 10-12 tons per truck). Site access, material type, and next-day delivery fees can change the final price, so get a local quote for an exact number.

Coverage depends on depth and stone density. As a rule of thumb, one ton of crushed stone covers about 100-120 sq ft at 2 inches, about 65-80 sq ft at 3 inches, and about 50-60 sq ft at 4 inches. Use these numbers for rough planning and get a precise calculation from Hello Gravel before ordering.

Most Hello Gravel deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks that carry roughly 10 to 12 tons of gravel. Larger end-dump trucks can carry more (15+ tons), but availability depends on the supplier and local roads. If you need a specific truck size, request it when you order so we can confirm availability and pricing.

For Gray and West Tennessee sourcing, crushed limestone or 3/4" crushed stone is commonly used as a durable base, with a 3/8" or pea gravel topcoat for smoother finish. Crushed stone gives good compaction and drainage on local soils; in low-lying or clay-heavy spots you may want a thicker base and better drainage. Talk to our team about your driveway width, traffic, and drainage to pick the right mix.

No, 2 inches is usually not enough for a driveway that sees vehicle traffic. For a durable residential driveway plan on 4 to 6 inches of compacted base material, with an additional 2 to 3 inches of top gravel if you want a finished surface. Thicker base reduces rutting and maintenance in Gray's seasonal weather and local soil conditions.

Costs depend on length, depth, stone type, and delivery. For example, a 20 ft wide by 50 ft long driveway (1,000 sq ft) at a 4-inch depth typically needs about 12 to 18 tons of material; at $20 to $35 per ton for materials and delivery you might expect roughly $400 to $630 for material alone, with total installed costs (including compaction and grading) commonly running $500 to $1,500.

Gray gravel color often comes from crushed limestone, granite, or shale, depending on local quarries. In Gray we source locally, so the exact shade and texture may vary with the regional geology in West Tennessee. If color matters for landscape aesthetics, add a note at checkout and ask for photos or a sample when available.

Gravel can reduce standing water and remove organic mulch that attracts pests, which helps limit some insects like mosquitoes and ticks. However, gravel is not a complete pest solution; gaps, edging, and nearby vegetation can still harbor bugs. Combine gravel with proper grading, drainage, and vegetation management for best results.

A well-built gravel driveway can improve curb appeal and function, which may positively influence buyers, but it is not a guaranteed value booster. The impact depends on neighborhood expectations, finish quality, and maintenance. For best results, use appropriate base depth, good drainage, and consistent material to present a neat, long-lasting surface.

Next-day delivery is available if you order before noon CST and pay the additional fee; standard delivery is 2+ business days. Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading service—request it at checkout and the driver will assess safety on arrival. If spreading is critical, plan for professional spreading and compaction after delivery.

Local soil type, drainage, and seasonal weather in the Gray area influence material choice: clay-heavy spots need thicker, well-drained bases, while well-draining gravel is fine on higher ground. Regional sourcing means the exact rock type and texture will reflect West Tennessee geology, so choose a mix that balances compaction, drainage, and appearance for your site. Contact our team with photos of the site for targeted recommendations.

Because Hello Gravel sources materials regionally, color and texture can vary from online photos; if you have concerns, contact customer service as soon as possible. We will do our best to accommodate changes before the order is processed or dispatched and to resolve issues once delivery occurs, but changes and refunds depend on the order status and our policies. See our terms or contact support for help.
